Ozzie : [after Claire took photo of him beside prehistoric man statue] Er, what are you doing tonight?
Claire Huddesen : Now just a minute! I want you to know that my interest in you is purely scientific. I'm just a cold-blooded scientist. And I'm writing an anthropological study for this musuem. It's called : "The Modern Man... And What It Is"

Claire Huddesen : How'd you feel if someone broke your dinosaur?
Ozzie : Never had one. We were too poor.

Ozzie : If through a lot of foolery you lost your last red cent/ I wouldn't even stop to ask you why/I'd pawn my mother's jewelry, I'd steal my sister rent/It's all for you kid, you can milk me dry!

Claire Huddesen : What a lucky girl I am. I've simply got to get your measurements.
Ozzie : Oh, I'm Junior Miss, size 11, very high-waisted.
Claire Huddesen : Gorgeous!
Ozzie : Hmm.
[takes the tape measure from Claire]
Ozzie : Now, it's my turn.
[starts measuring Claire]
Claire Huddesen : Oh. Oh! Stop. How dare you!
Ozzie : Oh, I was only playin', lady. Whatcha doin' tonight?

Claire Huddesen : And now the head. The sub-super-dolichocephalic head. Oh, sailor, I love you for having that!

Ozzie : Ladies and gentlemen, we're off on a lark. I've got one suggestion before we embark. There are lots of nice things to do in the dark. But let's not go rowing in Central Park. Woo! Woo! Woo!
[singing]
Ozzie : We're going on the town
Chip , Ozzie : New York! We're riding on a rocket, Woo! Woo! Woo!
Chip , Ozzie , Gabey : We're gonna really sock it! Because tonight's the night
Chip , Ozzie , Gabey , Brunhilde Esterhazy , Claire Huddesen , Ivy Smith : We're goin' on a toot, We're goin' to raise a riot, The Brooklyn Bridge, we'll buy it, And hit the heights tonight, Get high as kites tonight...

Brunhilde Esterhazy : I reckon you're stuck with us.
Chip : Yeah! We're your pals, pal.
[singing]
Chip : Oh, when you feel downhearted, You must remember this, Things never are, As bad as they could be, When friends have all departed, There's one you'll never miss, I'll be right with you, You can count on me
Ozzie , Lucy Schmeeler , Claire Huddesen , Brunhilde Esterhazy : Yeah! You can count on me, You can count on me
Chip : As the adding machine once said, "You can count on me"
Ozzie , Lucy Schmeeler , Claire Huddesen , Brunhilde Esterhazy , Gabey : Oh...

Chip : Gee, real champagne?
Gabey : Yeah! Not cream soda, not celery tonic; but, real champagne.
Ozzie : Oh, this is great. I've never had champagne before.
Claire Huddesen : Ozzie, if you say the bubbles tickle your nose, I'll drown you!
